Want to learn more about opportunities for your business by selling to international markets? If so, you may find this "Introduction to Exporting" workshop sponsored by the Minnesota Trade Office of value.
The United States is the largest market in the world, but it is home to only about 25 percent of the global purchasing power. Whether you are new to exporting or want to expand your global presence, Export Process: An Introduction to Exporting provides the tools to help you make sound decisions and plan for export success.
Exporting is not just for large multi-national companies. While 97 percent of U.S. exporters are small- and medium-sized businesses, only a small percentage of small businesses take advantage of their export potential. Export Process introduces the basics of exporting, providing a broad overview that touches on fundamental topics:
- assessing your company's export readiness;
- finding the right markets for your products or services;
- arranging shipments and collecting payment.
Don't miss this opportunity to learn the export basics you will need to successfully sell your goods and services in the global marketplace.
